I rounded the corners and then stamped random celestial-themed images on the cards. Then I rubbed the edges with my walnut ink to make them look a little aged. I'm still figuring out how to use that stuff, but I think it looks ok... I had already printed out the poem on some printed paper, which I then tore out, chalked the edges a bit, and glued them on. Then I added the flowers and beads (OMG, I *so* need mroe Diamond Glaze!) and finished them off with some glitter! ^_^

Yesterday was Hump Day and the downward slide to the weekend has begun. While to some this is a good thing (those who had work this week and are off on the weekend), for me it means the end of my vacation. Yes, I would have rather been working this week because we need the money, but since the schools are all closed, I have been determined to enjoy my forced time off.

I have watched movies, cleaned out the closet & my dresser, and am making progress cleaning off my desk and getting rid of the boxes underneath it. I have things for sale up on craigslist and hopefully will make some extra money despite not working. I have worked out, made a Vision Board, and looked for some music I enjoyed while in Chicoutimi. I even spent some time in bed reading.

I still have more movies to watch and more organizing to do, but I will be glad to get back to work on Monday.

Last call for sign-ups! I will be closing them at noon tomorrow and posting final details at that time!

Your mission: Create an 8 1/2 x 11 scrapbook page for each member of the swap of your favorite crock pot recipe.

Sign ups for this swap will be open for one week until February 2nd. Final details will be sent at that time, including total pages to make and address to mail your pages to.

You will have until Tuesday, February 19th to pop them in the mail to me. I will send them back out as soon as I have everyone's package.

Please remember to include a return address label and at least the same amount of postage as you needed to send your package out. For example, if you spend $1.60 to mail your pages, drop stamps, well hidden cash, or a money order equal to or greater than $1.60 in your envie (or you can paypal it to me). If you want your package returned priority, include enough for that. I will of course return any unneeded postage. I plan on using the envie you send your pages in to return your pages to you.

If you'd like to sign up, email me (off-list so we don't overload anyone's email: bunnykissd (at) gmail.com) with what your contribution will be; if there are several people wanting to do the same thing, I may request that you chose something else, but there are so many ideas floating around, I bet that won't happen! I can't wait to see what you all create! ^_^

While waiting for a friend at our local library, I stumbled across this series. Since their fantasy/sci-fi section was limited (and these weren't even in that section) I decided to pick up the first three books, thinking they'd be quick...
